Even though it will take a miracle at this point foe Duke to win, both teams are using their timeouts and penalty free throws (both of which stop the game clock), we're probably not go to see 60 Minutes start until at least 35 after the hour. (There's also TV timeouts which CBS gets for commercials.)

Since it's postseason, CBS will probably go back to New York for studio coverage. That way, they'll start at an even 7:40 or 7:45 with 60 Minutes. Then TAR will go at 8:40 to 8:45. Sucks that the one week there's no sporting event, the show is pre-empted. But back 4/21 it'll be back to normal.

Winning isn't everything, but it isn't considered nothing either. Otherwise, there wouldn't be a tribal council, a pit-stop, a boardroom, dimming of the lights, and so on

That is not what I said. CBS only send those out on Friday when the chance exists because of the nature of live sports programming. (And IIRC, the Masters did produce a more-than-an-hour delay in a recent year that set TAR back by more than an hour.)

The Masters final 2-some is now on hole #14. there are 5 holes to play, so if no sudden death OT then it will be about 7pm before the holes are finished. There are 4 golfers within two strokes of each other, so OT is likely.

With the Butler Cabin B.S. we are looking at 720pm as the likely earliest start for 60 Minutes.
